fleaing 's review for:
The Lockdown Diary of Tom Cooper
by Spencer Brown
Oh this book was absolutely hilarious and just brilliant!
It’s a book we can all relate to and the author does a great job of picking up on the things that I think we all experienced during lockdown, although have been slightly exaggerated for the book obviously. My favourite moment being the NHS support competition he had with his neighbour as bigger and better rainbows were added to the windows!
It’s not all fun and games though as it does also look at the tougher times of lockdown, from the character not being able to see his girlfriend, right up to the moment where his mum catches covid and ends up in hospital.
I’ve read a few books now which either featured or focussed on the lockdown situation as I think, although it’s been a strange and rubbish year, it’s something that we need to look back on and definitely make light of some of the situations we’ve all been in.
Overall it is completely relatable, with plenty of moments where you will be nodding your head saying ‘I did that!’ and I guarantee it will have you laughing out loud!
